a Fine Campaign Drink.

John Randolph Tucker astonished north
ern friend, the other day, by telling him that
buttermilk was his favorite campaign drink,
and that he always stuck to it when he was
on a stamping tour.
1t will be recollected that Horace Greeley
managed to make series of remarkably
good campaign speeches with no stronger
stimulant than milk. Mr.. fuckers beverage
is even better. 1t does not interfere with
the digestion, and it cools and lubricates the
throat, besides atfording nourishment.
A buttermilk orator is not likely to make
any very bad breaks. On the other hand.
the speaker who braces up with dose of
the ardent is liable at any time to overshoot
the mark. The excitement of facing large
crowds is so stimulating in itself that most
men need to be held back rather than spur
red forward.
The buttermilk idea, however, is not Mr..
fuckers discovery. lie got it from Henry
A Wise, who, whatever else might be said
of him, was certainly anything but a dull
speaker. The successful experiment of
these two Virginians in the matter of finding
campaign bracer that cheers without in
ebriating, is pointer worth remembering.
